The "this is just wrong" thread

Nothing wrong with that!

 

I'm sure this was already posted, and I actually like it! Any older guys remember a similar first Gen Mustang show rod like this, only covered in flames and possibly chopped? It's caricature was a masthead in early seventies Popular Hot Rodding magazine, and was also in an ad. Incidentally, since the nosecones and wing were a kit, some of you may remember Bob McClurg of late seventies Hot Rod Magazines' Project Mustang build up, finished and shown in August '79 issue, but at one time wearing the wing from this kit....

 

Seen at a car show yesterday:

At first I thought it was an early 70s dune buggy/Fad T mashup. Then I noticed that the body was all cardboard and tape…

 

I wouldn't be caught dead in that!!!!

 

It reminds me of the Cardboard Boat races the kids have.....but not as creative!

 

I think it’s pretty cool. But how do you open the hood? With a “box cutter”??

 

Reminds me of Brum… BBC kids show shown out here in the colonies.

I’m fairly confident I saw that Mustang in Reno a few weeks ago at Hot August Nights.
It had a Hemi in it, looks to be a older build.
He brings it to HAN every year.

 

I kind of like this custom, sure would like to see more of it!

 

Hey Dick,

The build is on the HAMB.

 

Could you post a link to the build thread, please?

 

My grandmother had a 64 Chrysler Saratoga 2-dr with a 383. Loved that car, but probably not the nicest Mopar in the looks department. Wonder if he kept the push-buttons for the trans? lol!

 

To quote @anthony myrick , I’d drive it.

 

I’d make some $$$$$ on that where I live

 

Wonder how many times he's wacked his forehead getting in and out.

 

This place is definitely where this belongs.

 

I think he was already "wacked"!

 

I found the specific Mustang I was looking for ... it's a true street freak!! I'd love seeing it in color, Canadian Xavier Miron's wild '67 Mustang!

 

box car willy's ????

 

Hahaha, that's funnier than hell right there!!

 

B&W

 

Would get real melty in the rain! EZ to replace body

 

That's the pic I remember! Wonder if it's still around, and yes...I like it!!

 

Is that why "show cars" don't show up if there is a chance of rain? Afraid they will melt?

 

Sometimes you wonder if they were “painted with water-colours”.

cheers,

With my car it's more that I don't want the interior to get soaked because of all the leaks.
